Recently the problem of energy branch become worse increasingly. Therefore many researches about new energy source are processing in several places around are processing in several places around the world. Especially solar energy has many advantages like as purity and infinity. Photovoltaic(PV) system can be classified into two types : One is stand alone type and the other is utility interactive one. Utility interactive type PV system need some technology that Maximum peak power tracking(MPPT) and Anti-islanding and Active Power filter(APF). For APF operation dc-link voltage should be high to supply sufficient output current which needed for harmonic current compensation so usually DC-DC converter is used for boost. In this paper DC-DC converter for PV system and controller for dc-link voltage control are analyzed and designed.

In this paper , the simple MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) control algorithm is proposed for the grid-connected photovoltaic power system. This method uses the difference in the slope of the solar array voltage range below the MPP and above the MPP. This simple the algorithm enables the hardware implementation achieved by only analog devices. The proposed MPPT algorithm is verified by the hardware experiment using 500[W] solar away simulator, simplified inverter model hardware set, and rectified grid-line.

Photovoltaic (PV) systems bosed on solar energy offer an environmentally friendly source of electricity. A key feature of such PV sysem is the efficiency of conversion at which the power converter stage can extract the energy from the PV arrays and deliver to the load. The Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of the PV output for all sunshine conditions allows reduction of the cost installation and maximizes the power output from the PV panel. The proposed algorithm is to control the width of the pulse for battery charging based on the open voltage of the PV panel. As a lab results, the proposed system was implemented functions to adapt to the changes of the PV open voltage, and improved the charging efficiency.

A Power control and Distribution Unit (PCDU) plays roles of protection of battery against overcharge by active control of solar array generated power, distribution of unregulated electrical power via controlled outlets to bus and instrument units, distribution of regulated electrical power to selected bus and instrument units, and provision of status monitoring and telecommand interface allowing the system and ground operate the power system, evaluate its performance and initiate appropriate countermeasures in case of abnormal conditions. In this work, we perform the preliminary design of a PCDU for the small Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite applications. The main constitutes of the PCDU are the battery interface module, solar array regulators with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technology, heater power distribution modules, internal converter modules for regulated bus voltage generation, power distribution modules of unregulated and regulated primary bus, and instrument power distribution modules.

We tried to find the possibility of mono-crystalline silicon solar cell for photovoltaic concentrating system which is major cost portion for PV system using fresnel lens. With solar simulator and I-V curve tracer, we analyzed maximum output characteristics and measured the temperature of concentrated area using infrared camera. Because of temperature increase, there was no merit when concentrating. But at low radiant power, it showed more efficient operation. The combination of heat-sink technology and tracking system to our concentrating PV system would give better performance results.

To increase the efficiency of a solar module, the development of solar concentrator using a lens or reflection plate is being proceeded actively and the concentrator pursues the a concentration using a lens or an optical device of a concentration rate and designing as a solar tracking system. On the other hand, as the energy density being dissipated as a heat according to the concentration rate increases, the cares should be taken to cool the solar concentrator to prevent the lowering of efficiency of solar cell by the increasing temperature of the solar cell. This study, researched and developed an economical concentrator module system using a low priced reflection optical device. A concentrator was used as a general module to increase the generation efficiency of the solar module and heat generated was emitted by the concentration through the cooling system. To increase the efficiency of the solar concentrator, the cooling system was designed and manufactured. The features of the micro cooling system (MCS) are a natural circulation method by the capillary force, which does not require external power. By using the potential heat in the case of changing the fluid, it is available to realize high performance cooling. The 117W solar modules installed on the reflective plate and the cooling device in the cooling module and the module unit was not compared. The cooling device was installed in the module resulted in a 28% increase in power output.
